the largest possible place in the
walk assigned to him, has i'll the
exhibition of that spirit the guar
antee of success. He commands
the situation, aud shall walk in the
light OF prosperity all his days. On
the other hand, the man who &C
cepts the uuwholesome advice OF

little he may do, and how easy he
may render his place and not lose
his employment altogether, is unfit
for service. AS soon as there is

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
HOW HORSES ARE SPOILED.

When We have succeeded in in
spring the horse with entire con
fdence in himself and IN his mas
ter also, there is but little likell'
hood, unless he is a very nervous
or very perverse horse, that he
will become troublesome through
any vicious act, or want of honesty.
"Balking," that one vice that
pretty nearly takes all the value
out Of some horses, is undoubtedly
always, or very nearly always,
chargeable to lndiscreet manage
ment on the part of those who
have had the breaking-training-
and after management at work.
Thus, if a horse is overloaded while
yet young, stops to rest without
being told to do so, and finding
the rest agreeable, and the start
ing-being weary-disagreeable, it
is not to be wondered at that he
forms the habit of stopping, and
thenceforward becomes "balker."
If, when this first inclination to
stop aud hesitate IS observed the

ting onto an easier piece of road,
tightening the load, or giving the
horse rest, and feed if needed, after
ward avoiding a similar occasion
for stopping, the danger of having
a confirmed balky horse may be
averted. But when under these
circumstances the horse 10 hit with
the whip, and sharply reprimanded,
then look out for a retaliatory
effort. The horse assumes that
you are his enemy, and from that
moment he places himself in an
antagonistic position, looking upon
his master as an enemy.
The question is often asked
whether a confirmed baker can be
cured. This admits of a double
answer-yes and no, If the horse
is in good hands, managed by
some person who has frmness and
judgment, he can sometimes be
cured by driving stake and hitch
ing him at the spot where he stops,
until he is glad to move along to
where his rations are. Horses

is, "taking them at their word, "
